Warriors: The Return Of The Greatest Heroes

17. Attacked

I thank you all for all of the wonderful comments!

"So, how do you think Jayfeather found out?" Hollypaw asked.

"Um, his scent, probably. Since he was blind, his other senses sharpened." Dustpaw explained.

"So," Firepaw looked at the other apprentices. "The Dark Forest."

"Yeah," Graypaw stated. "What about it?"

"They should be becoming warriors soon."

"Yeah, well, you see," the gray tom thought for a while. "They may be in trouble in ShadowClan, and, erm, held back from being a warrior for a while?" Graypaw's answer came out more like a question than a statement.

"Sure," Sandpaw nodded slowly.

"Yeah!"

"So, I believe we are supposed to go with our mentor's now." Ravenpaw suggested.

"Yeah," Hollypaw agreed. "Whitepaw already left."

"Firepaw! Firepaw!" Emberblaze's voice sounded from in the camp.

"Coming!" Firepaw squeaked.

"Did you just squeak?" Graypaw asked.

"Shut up,"

"Okay then," the gray tom snickered.

"Silverpaw!" this time it was Acornwish.

Eventually, all of the apprentices were called.

"Where we going today?" Firepaw inquired.

"I was thinking battle strategies." the gray she-cat stated.

"Okay!" the flame colored tom was really excited now.

The two made their way to the training hollow.

"Swipe! Now, lunge!" Emberblaze was strict with battle stuff. She hasn't even taught Firepaw any moves yet, but she was awesome at the basics. Also known as destroying the leaf invaders with simple swipes and lunges.

"You're doing fine today," the gray she-cat approved.

Blackbriar and Ravenpaw then entered the clearing.

"Blackbriar, Ravenpaw," Emberblaze greeted.

Firepaw and Ravenpaw met each others eyes and thought in unison. How are we going to stop the Dark Forest from killing all of the Clan? They said Beetlebreeze was next...He could be dying right now...Well, that's not right because he's training Dustpaw right now...Hopefully Dustpaw will help defend Beetlebreeze...This went on for a while, a sort of mental conversation.

Okay, spoke to soon.

"Firepaw!" Emberblaze called. "Lunge!"

"What?"

"You heard me! The leaf is getting away!"

"Oh, yeah." the flame colored tom ripped the leaf up.

"Good," the gray she-cat approved.

That was when she was bowled over by a dark figure.

I'm sorry about the short chapters, I've had a lot on my mind lately.... Hope you enjoyed anyway!
